Oh-So Zin, 2007, 100% Zinfandel, Santa Clara Valley. A smooth raspberry gem of a Zin that lounged on oak for 20 months. The result is a smooth, approachable wine with lush fruit flavors from start to finish. Not as bold as our Estate Zin, so it drinks well by itself, or with light snacks and cheeses. And good friends.

Ta-Da Syrah, 2008, 100% Estate Syrah, Santa Clara Valley. Deep, inky-plum in the glass with the shy scent of truffles under oak leaves after a spring rain. Cascading, juicy summer fruit flavors without – especially blueberries and blackberries. It’s smoky, smooth, and full-bodied all the way to Nirvana (the capital of satori).

This Merlot, made from grapes grown in the Santa Clara Valley, is the perfect accompaniment to lamb, beef, and pasta dishes. It is a wonderful, medium bodied Merlot, with a deep ruby red color and flavors of black plum and currant, soft tannins of leather and oak, leaving a nice velvety, fruity finish.
